Trending
Kovacevic had a memorable start to the 2025 season, particularly enjoying a successful three-week stretch from mid-January to February. During this period, the American national won the Challenger tournament in Oeiras and reached the finals of the Open Occitanie after clinching wins over Alexander Bublik and Andrey Rublev.
Subsequently, he had a forgettable series of performances, including opening-round losses at Rotterdam, Indian Wells, and Miami.
At Los Cabos earlier this week, Kovacevic played his first match on a hardcourt surface after nearly four months. He pleasantly surprised many with a deep run at the ATP 250 event, eventually losing 4-6, 2-6 to Denis Shapovalov in the final.
Quentin Halys, on the other hand, has played relatively fewer matches on the surface. Across 10 tournaments, the Frenchman boasts a 52.6% win rate, with his best result coming at Dubai. Halys defeated Yasutaka Uchiyama and Pavel Kotov to clinch a spot in the main draw. He further pulled off upsets against Rublev, Roberto Bautista Agut, and Luca Nardi before suffering a 7-5, 4-6, 3-6 loss against Felix Auger-Aliassime in the semifinals.

Aleksandar Kovacevic vs Quentin Halys prediction
Aleksandar Kovacevic boasts a career win rate of 58.3%, further increasing to 66.7% on hard courts in the 2025 season, making it his most successful surface by far. In contrast, Quentin Halys entered Washington with a 52.6% hardcourt win rate in 2025.
While Halys is clearly the more powerful server and racks up more aces per match, his effectiveness drops significantly when he misses his first serve. He struggles on second serve, winning just 48.3% of those points as compared to Kovacevic’s 52.9%. Moreover, Halys is prone to errors, averaging 2.2 more double faults per match than Kovacevic.
Prediction: Aleksandar Kovacevic to win in straight sets.
